2.2 接下来说口语的part2.
我还记得那个local考官给出来的框架,我觉得挺有用的,主要是针对说不够两分钟的人。
其实我自己每次一说就停不住,所以对他给的框架,都会自己变动。
还是客观的说一下这个框架吧。
一般给你个问题,考官建议,先点题。
比如问你describe a place you always visit. 注意,这里要看清楚时态,这里是说你经常去的,你就不能说你只去了一次的,或是曾经去过的地方。
我自己回答,就会比较随意。不过local雅思考官建议,你先说一句:Well, I'm gonna talk about a really good (用really加强一下语气)place that I visit a lot, which is a cafe called XXX. 反正就是时态呼应。如果问你describe a place you visited,你后面就用过去时。
以此类推。
这是开头,接下来,做为介绍,你可以说一下为啥要说这个地方,比如As you might guess, I'm really into coffee,and I chose this(cafe)(一般尽量避免重复,同样的单词别老不停说) today simply because I think they make the best ones.
对了,有些native些的口头用语这里很常用。比如别用like,多用into,比如别用relax,多用chill/unwind,别用relax myself(超级chinglish),用help me relax/unwind,也别说release pressure,外国人没人这样用,他们说缓解压力,就relax就好了,还有个说法是out of steam,但绝对不会说什么pressure release。
这样你大概就花去20-30秒了。接下来,停顿一下,让考官知道你介绍完了,要move on了,接下来可以说说你的故事,比如说Anyway, I clearly remember...或是描述一下那个地方,比如说So,basically...
接下来的部分,就是尽量生动的,说故事,描绘你要说的那个地方。
我举个例子吧,我反正也忘得差不多了,随便打一下,题目就是describe a place that you like to visit.
我的回答:well, I'm gonna describe a really nice place that I love to visit, which is a cafe called jiu tian tang,(这里先回答中文,再给考官翻译一下,他们比较喜欢学习这类名词),in English it means old heaven and it's actually in Beijing.(胡编地名)As you might guess, i'm really into coffee and I chose this today simply because I think they make the best ones. So when I'm free back at home, I always like to spend some time there.
Anyway, I clearly remember it was XX years ago, when I'm still in beijing and my friend xiao ming (一定要把人名,地名说清楚,这些词汇简单,但是代表你发言的多样性,一定要编个名字), who by the way, likes coffee as well, took me there. It was located in a trendy area, right next to the city town hall (胡编地方),然后再胡编几句描述。比如it's small but delicate, it has timber facade and exposed concrete floor and walls. it has nice central courtyard and outdoor space for people to hang. The owner's a bit hippy and he has a very wide range of indie folk and rock music albums collections.等等。
这时候其实差不多了,说的慢,也有一分半了。顺序上,可以说下时间地点人物,事件,然后按照一定的逻辑描述。
接下来就可以总结了。
接下来说说part2的总结,总结是很重要的。
local考官跟我说过,他们喜欢听你的心情,你的感想,你喜欢还是讨厌你说的东西。但很多同学来不及说,就到时了,或者根本没想到要说自己的感受。
所以,给自己留出十几秒,说说结语。
等说完描述、回忆的部分,你可以停一小下,然后说,
Now, the fact is I really love/hate XXX. What I learned is...What I will do is...(说说你的总结和未来展望)
最后,如果有时间,说一句,And that's why, at the end of the day...i .....表达一下最终感受。
